Presentation topic: Securing and Protecting Content in Power BI: Practical Tips
Presentation description: The Power BI Service has a few different ways you can secure and protect content. We’ll discuss and demonstrate options for securing content in ways that balance efficiency, risk reduction, and user flexibility.
This session includes lots of demos and practical tips throughout.
A few key concepts we'll cover include:
How security needs affect the workspace design approach
When to use app permissions vs. workspace roles vs. per-item sharing
How security settings are inherited
How sharing links work
How direct access sharing works
Ways to use app audiences
When to use the 'build' or 'write' permission for a dataset
How the 'discoverable' setting for a dataset is helpful
How the 'request access' workflow works
When row-level security is necessary
How data protection correlates with security
Attendees will walk away with:
Actionable information about options for securing and protecting content
Decision-making criteria about which security method to choose when
Suggestions and best practices
The primary focus of this session is on security settings that self-service content creators and owners can directly manage in the Power BI Service. We won't spend a lot of time discussing security aspects that are managed by system administrators for the entire tenant. We won't be covering the security model for Power BI Report Server or content embedded in other applications.
